Types of Mouthguards:
Mouthguards can be worn by professional athletes who play football, boxing, soccer, hockey, karate, rugby, skateboarding, or any sport where there are higher risks of dental injury. There are several different types of mouthguards you can choose from. No matter which mouthguard you want our dentists can give you the advice you need to make the best decision based on your lifestyle and needs.
Preformed Mouthguards
You can find preformed mouthguards most frequently at sports stores. These mouthguards are affordable and have a unique teeth pattern on them. However, they can be uncomfortable to wear unless your teeth are perfectly aligned. If your teeth are not perfectly aligned many have found these mouthguards to be painful to the gums.
“Boil and Bite” Mouthguards
“Boil and bite” mouthguards are also commonly found at sports stores. When you purchase them they are hard until you place them in a pot of boiling water. Once it has somewhat cooled you can mold the mouthguard into your teeth by pushing with your fingers and tongue to get the shape of your teeth making them more comfortable than preformed mouthguards.
Custom Mouthguards
Getting a customized mouthguard is ideal and tailored perfectly for your mouth. Our dentists at Smile Obsession will first design a model of your teeth, and then individually fabricate it into a piece of protective gear that fits exact to your mouth. Most importantly, it will be strong, comfortable, and lightweight.

Mouthguard Care and Maintenance
Taking care of your mouthguard is easy and doesn’t take up much of your time. The most important factor you’ll want to keep in mind is to keep it clean as often as possible. You can rinse your mouthguard or use a mild cleanser to rinse it generously before using it again. Once you are done using it you’ll want to always keep it in a ventilated container to prevent germs, bacteria, bad odor, or any damage. If your mouthguard is made in acrylic, it should be kept in water to preserve its shape.
